    1. Catharine Parr Traill College

      All hail Traill, the college on the hill! One of Trent's original colleges and the only college located in Peterborough's downtown, Traill is a community of forward-thinking and creative Traillblazers. As a hub for both undergraduate and graduate studies, our college brings together students of all years of study to create an environment where diversity and the blending of ideas thrive.

      For over 50 years, Traill College has offered Trent University students a welcoming space to study, or relax, in the university college tradition. Named after nineteenth-century author and naturalist Catharine Parr Traill, the College has forged a unique identity as Trent’s downtown location. Its alumni are fiercely loyal and include prominent politicians, screenwriters, professors, teachers, scientists and a Nobel prize laureate.  It is a place for students of all ages and interests.
